<u>Answer;</u>

Reflective surface

<u>Explanation;</u>

  • Reflection is one of the property of a wave that occurs when a wave hits a boundary which is a reflective surface. The wave bounces off upon hitting the reflective boundary, such that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
  • Therefore, ice is an example of a reflective surface as light waves bounces off and radiate back when they hit the surface of the ice.

A large airplane typically has three sets of wheels: one at the front and two farther back, one on each side under the wings. Co
Tems11 [23]

(a) The force the ground exerts on each set of rear wheels when the plane is at rest on the runway is 0.743 MN.

(b) The force the ground exerts on the front set of wheels is 0.239 MN.

<h3>Center mass of the airplane</h3>

The concept of center mass of an object can be used to dtermine the mass distribution of the airplane along the line through the center.

<h3>Some assumptions</h3>
  • The wheels under the wind do not pass through the center line.
  • The position of the front wheel is constant and it is zero mark (origin).
  • The rear wheels are at 21.7 m mark

Position of the center mass of the plane is calculated as follows;

Let the position of the center mass, Xcm = y

the center mass is 3 m in front of rear wheels, that is

21.7 - y = 3

y = 21.7 - 3

y = 18.7 m

Xcm = 18.7 m

<h3>Mass of the plane at the position of the rear wheels</h3>

Let the mass of the plane at front wheels = M1

Let the mass of the plane at rear wheels = M2

X_{cm} = \frac{M_1x_1 + M_2x_2}{M_1 + M_2}

18.7 = \frac{M_1(0) + M_2(21.7)}{177000} \\\\3,309,900 = 21.7M_2\\\\M_2 = \frac{3,309,900}{21.7} \\\\M_2 = 152,529.95 \ kg

<h3>Force exerted by the ground on each rear wheel</h3>

There are two rear wheels, and the force exerted on each wheel due to mass of the airplane at this position is calculated as follows;

W = mg\\\\W_1 = W_2 = \frac{1}{2} (mg) = \frac{1}{2} (152,529.95 \times 9.8) = 743,396.76 \ N= 0.743 \ MN

<h3>Mass of the plane at the position of the front wheel</h3>

M1 + M2 = 177,000

M1 = 177,000 - M2

M1 = 177,000 - 152,529.95

M1 = 24,470.05 kg

<h3>Force exerted by the ground on the front wheel</h3>

W = mg

W = 24,470.05 x 9.8

W = 239,806.5 N = 0.239 MN

A giant star has a luminosity of 300 its color is most likely to be
amm1812
<span>The correct answer is blue. If you look at a luminosity star chart, called the Hertzsprung Russell Diagram, you will see the measurement of luminosity on the left side, and you will see a curve of stars with different colors (which correlate to the colors of the stars). Look for 30 on the luminosity measurement (look between 1 and 100). Then, move horizontally across the diagram until you hit the stars, whose color will be blue. Thus, blue is the answer.</span>
